Write this Down! with Dot Bowen

When we choose to follow Jesus, our old self dies and we are reborn. In this episode, Dot and Cara talk about this idea and some of the other wisdom they’ve found in the book of Romans. They also explain how trying to find freedom will ultimately leave you even more enslaved than you were before and remind listeners that we don’t need to earn God’s grace or forgiveness.
